Resource Centre

Our Resource Centre is a free lending library of the largest dementia-specific collection in Ontario. It provides lending services not only to residents of Toronto, but also to individuals across Ontario who are unable to locate the required materials locally.

Our Resource Centre is open to the public. Visitors can consult reference works, view videos and DVDs, borrow materials, obtain free information resources in over 30 languages, or just have a quiet time to read away from the demands of everyday life.

Our full-time librarian can provide assistance in determining which materials are best suited to your needs and can also conduct literature searches for articles on topics of concern to you.

Access to the Collection:

The Resource Centre is open to the public.
Most books and DVDs are available for loan. Periodicals and reference materials are not loaned.

Individuals across Ontario may borrow directly from the Toronto Resource Centre after ensuring the desired item is not available from their
